1998 ASAT Classic III |
The following images are in the ASATs/Broadcasters section of the Pictures Gallery: |
The very first limited edition instrument produced by the G&L
Custom Creations Department. There were only 100 of these instruments
built, and orders were accepted on a "first come, first served" basis.
Interestingly, the guitars were not identified as "#X of 100".
Quote from G&L's company web site: "In April 1998, the G&L artist program requested an ASAT Classic with a third, centrally located pickup and five position selector switch. A reverse-wound ASAT Classic neck pickup was requested for the middle position, but tooling to reverse-wind this pickup was not yet in existence. The G&L Custom Creations Department responded by developing tooling to allow the ASAT Classic neck pickup to be reverse-wound, to be used only in the limited edition ASAT Classic Three."
